    Isn’t that cool? Hard work in a pretty package! I’d be handing them out like sticks of gum. “Hi supermarket checker! I wrote a book. See?”

    Yea!! Such a pretty book–I agree, it will cause a lot of people to reach out and take it off the shelves. So exciting for you!

    So exciting! Thank you for sharing the thrill. Downunder we have to wait a little longer. No signings in Oz or NZ? You’d rather go to Venezia? Me too! Happy celebrations to you and all the family, Jan too.

    Let me tell you a story …
    When I was about 4, my mother had a book published. I remember her unpacking the book and jumping up and down and laughing. Of course, I didn’t know *why* she was so excited about this particular book, so for years I called that “Mommy’s Heehee Book.”
    So, I think a certain amount of “dorking out” is probably normal. 😉
    Congratulations! I’m looking forward to getting my copy.

    The best thing is your contagious smile!!! You look so thrilled. My dd – an aspiring author herself has been grinning and grinning after watching your video too.
    Congratulations!

    Congratulations!
    I wish it was going to be in my LYS. It’s been in my Amazon Cart for months, but I think I’m going to wait until I can pick it up myself. 🙂
    I’ll have to wave it around and loudly say “Ohmygod, I’ve been looking for this, I’ve heard it’s wonderful, I’m so glad you have it!”
    Yeah, okay, that’s my plan.
